Jeff has made special arrangements for all of us to attend the Las Vegas Renaissance Festival and to be part of the festivities. Jeff will also teach you many of his favorite street magic routines. Students will also get to perform in Ultra Modern Las Vegas Street Magic locations. Jeff McBride studied street magic with master of the art, Jeff Sheridan.

"I applied your advice to my act and it has really made a difference. Not only did I take the 2003 Lance Burton Award, but I also received the 2003 IBM Stage Champion Award. Now instead of competing at conventions I am appearing!" --Matthew David Stanley
